Original bug report read: <Package: dpkg-dev <Version: 1.9.17 <Severity: normal < <Hello, < <The control file of my pari package look like < <Source: pari <Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 1.1.17),tetex-bin,tetex-extra,libreadline4-dev,xlib <s-dev,libncurses5-dev <Build-Depends-Indep: <Section: math <Priority: optional <Maintainer: Bill Allombert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <Standards-Version: 3.5.5.0 This calls for some comments: 1) the bug is against dpkg 1.9.17 and still apply with 1.9.20. Wether or not it works with dpkg 1.9.8 or with the current CVS version is not particularly relevant. 2) It seems an empty Build-Depends-Indep: line followed by an empty line is accepted by dpkg-checkbuilddeps, but not if it is followed by another control line, i.e if Build-Depends-Indep: is not the last line of the Source section. 3) The bug is easily reproducible with the information I gave. Just do cd /tmp;mkdir -p foo/debian; cd foo; cat >debian/control <<EOF Source: pari Build-Depends: Section: math Priority: optional Maintainer: Bill Allombert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Standards-Version: 3.5.5.0 EOF dpkg-checkbuilddeps and the output is dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: Section: math Cheers, -- Bill. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> FHS 5.3: As of the date of this release of the standard, system crash were not supported under Linux. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
